What is the Oracle Vector DB MCP Server?

Bring your Oracle Database 23ai vector capabilities directly into your AI agent workflow. Run VECTOR_DISTANCE similarity searches, inspect table schemas, execute SQL queries, and manage vector indexes — all through natural conversation.

What you can do

Vector Similarity Search — Execute native Oracle 23ai VECTOR_DISTANCE queries with cosine or Euclidean metrics against any table with VECTOR columns
Schema Inspection — List all tables in your schema and describe column types, spotting VECTOR-enabled columns for embedding storage
SQL Execution — Run arbitrary SQL queries against Oracle via ORDS for ad-hoc analysis and data retrieval
Vector Index Management — List all HNSW and IVF vector indexes instantiated across your tables
Table Statistics — Get row counts and optimizer stats for capacity planning and query performance tuning
Version Check — Verify your Oracle runtime version to confirm 23ai vector feature compatibility

How it works

Subscribe to this server
Enter your Oracle ORDS URL, Schema, Username, and Password
Start querying your vector store from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

Enterprise data teams — run vector searches against production Oracle databases without context-switching to SQL Developer
ML engineers — test embedding queries on Oracle 23ai's native vector engine during RAG pipeline development
DBAs — inspect vector indexes, table stats, and schema configurations through conversation

Built-in capabilities (7)

describe_table

execute_sql_query

WARNING: Output payload size is inherently limited, restrict rows fetched (FETCH FIRST 100 ROWS ONLY) to ensure stability. Execute arbitrary SQL query against the Oracle runtime via ORDS

get_database_version

list_tables

List accessible tables in the current Oracle schema

list_vector_indexes

List specialized AI Vector search indexes (HNSW, IVF) instantiated

table_stats

Get table cardinality and optimizer statistics

vector_search

1, -0.4, 0.5]` against a strict `VECTOR` column natively inside Oracle DB, sorting and fetching the nearest neighbors. Execute Vector similarity search via Oracle 23ai native VECTOR_DISTANCE

Why VS Code Copilot?

GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Oracle Vector DB data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 7 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.

—
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
—
Project-scoped MCP configs (.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access
—
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
—
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with Oracle Autonomous Database?

Yes. Oracle Autonomous Database on OCI has ORDS enabled by default. Use the ORDS URL from your ADB instance (e.g., https://xxxxx.adb.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloudapps.com/ords), your schema name (typically ADMIN), and the admin credentials. The VECTOR type is available on all 23ai-compatible instances.

Can I run arbitrary SQL — not just vector searches?

Yes. The execute_sql_query tool accepts any valid Oracle SQL statement and returns results through ORDS. Add FETCH FIRST N ROWS ONLY to keep payloads manageable. This makes the agent useful for relational queries too, not just vector operations.

Which distance metrics are available for vector search?

Oracle 23ai supports COSINE and EUCLIDEAN (L2) distance metrics natively via VECTOR_DISTANCE. Specify the metric when running a search — cosine is recommended for most text embedding use cases, while L2 works better for image or audio embeddings.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
